Hello, long time without entering the forum (almost 3 weeks, lot of work).

This post is not for asking about common or commercial names but to write some of them.

Yesterday arrived the second importation of Apistos of this year. So, today, early in the morning, I went to the importer´s store.

That´s what he got:

A. "marine": some form of A. bitaeniata. U$S 18 each.
A. "shishita": some form of A. bitaeniata. U$S 18 each.
A. "purutu": again, some form of A. bitaeniata. U$S 15 each.
A. bitaeniata "blue": this is the "standard" bitaeniata found in the hobby in my country. U$S 12 each.
A. bitaeniata "yellow": again, some form of A. bitaeniata. U$S 15 each.
A. agassizii "blue": this is the "standard" agassizii found in the hobby in my country. U$S 12 each.
A. agassizii "red": another color form of A. agassizii. U$S 20 each.

Because the fish are in bad shape (thin and almost black) I didn´t buy anything (besides I´m almost sure there are just males).

6 months of waiting for this!!!

I´m angry.
